This week we bring you the stories of "The Ones that Got Away", Tex Smith's encouragement to preserve your memories, and a very cool shop tour at Metalworks from Chadly Johnson. Plus, as promised, we've relaunched Rodder's Row here in the highlights, and on the site. Got a question our community can answer? Send it to [email protected]. Have a safe and happy holiday everyone! | ||||||
